Scanning transmission electron microscopy, or STEM, is a powerful imaging technique that enables researchers to study a material’s morphology, composition, and bonding behavior at the angstrom scale.

A new AI model generates realistic synthetic microscope images of atoms, providing scientists with reliable training data to accelerate materials research and atomic scale analysis. (Nanowerk ...

A unique laboratory at Michigan Tech captured microscopic photography of snowflakes in a demonstration of the lab's high-powered scanning electron microscope. The Applied Chemical and Morphological ...

With the inventions of transmission electron microscopy (TEM) in 1931 and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) shortly after in 1937, scientists gained an unprecedented ultrastructural view of the ...

Our ability to image the subatomic realm is limited, not just by resolution, but also by speed. The constituent particles that make up – and fly free from – atoms can, in theory, move at speeds ...

Scanning electron microscope images of trona found in samples of the asteroid Bennu returned by NASA’s OSIRIS-REx mission. Trona is water-bearing sodium carbonate, also known commonly as soda ash.

“Nanowonder: Images from the Microscopic World” is a new exhibit on display in the Rozsa Art Galleries featuring photographs taken by a high-powered electron scanning microscope. × Butterfly wings, ...

Felipe Rivera, director of the microscopy facility at BYU, stands in front of one of the university’s new transmission electron microscopes, which will allow undergraduate students to capture 3D ...

They can image a wide range of materials and biological samples with high magnification, resolution, and depth of field, thereby revealing surface structure and chemical composition. Industries like ...
